The Xperia L1 is one of the cheapest Sony
smartphones launched by the Japanese handset maker last year. Introduced at
Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2017 back in February, the Xperia L1 will be
getting a sequel this year, possibly around the same time.
A set of 3D renders based on the official sketches
and measurements have been recently published online, but aside from that, the
Xperia L2 has been approved by the Malaysian regulatory agency, so there's no
doubt the phone exists and will be announced very soon.
It's also worth noting that design-wise, the Xperia
L2 doesn't bring too many changes compared to the previous model. The best
thing about the upcoming smartphone is the specs got seriously bumped up.
For example, the Xperia L2 is said to pack an
octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 630 processor, coupled with 4GB RAM, unlike the
previous model that includes only 2GB RAM. Apparently, Sony Xperia L2 will run
Android Nougat at launch, but that could still change until the phone goes
official. Also, the Xperia L2 sports a large 5.5-inch display, possibly with HD
(720p) resolution.
Finally, the Xperia L2 will be a rather thick
smartphone at 9.8mm, but the rest of the phone's measurements are within the
parameters: 149.9x78.4mm.
